It’s Back Again: Rogers’ Rumored 8GB iPhone 3GS

After Canada’s Rogers Wireless told Gizmodo “There is no 8GB 3GS iPhone,” the website has turned up a photo of the company’s internal sales system showing that low-and-behold, there is an 8GB iPhone 3GS after all.

Reportedly sent by a Rogers’ employee, the photo of the system shows an 8GB 3GS priced at $74 — the same price as the current iPhone 3G that it will likely replace ($99 – $25 customer discount).

Earlier this week, Rogers told Gizmodo that a webpage showing the new phone was a “mistake.” Gizmodo now suspects it was lied to.

UPDATED: 8GB iPhone 3GS Confirmed By Rogers’ Wireless Website

“This is the second such internal reference to a 8GB 3GS to come from Rogers in as many weeks, not to mention their recent website fiasco, where an 8GB 3GS was listed in a feature comparison chart, then deleted as ‘a mistake,’” says Giz. “None of these leaks stand alone as totally convincing, but three unconnected reports? That’s a little too much to ignore, even for a skeptic.”
